Shanghai Disneyland nears a million visitors: CEO
Online Edition
DISNEY chief executive Robert Iger on Monday said that nearly a million people have visited the entertainment giant's theme park opened less than a month ago in China's mainland, AFP reported.
"It would be safe to assume almost a million people have experienced the park," Iger said during an on-stage chat at a Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen, Colorado.
Visitors to the park are staying longer than expected each day and showing fondness for Chinese barbecued pork with rice, cheeseburgers and turkey legs, according to Iger.
"We are introducing turkey legs to China," Iger quipped. "Which I thought was a mistake, but we are selling 3,000 a day."
Each turkey leg, sourced from Poland, costs more than $8 US.
Disney set the entrance fee at 499 yuan ($76) during peak periods and 370 yuan ($56) for other times, in a country where the average monthly disposable income is just $278.
The Shanghai resort is the US company's sixth in the world and the first in mainland.
Disney said its philosophy is to integrate local elements throughout, from the Chinse food on the menu to the attractions -- even the Disney castle is topped with a traditional peony flower.
The park is the most technologically advanced ever constructed by Disney, Iger said.
